The phase diagram of H2O is different from the phase diagrams of most other substances. Explain the difference between the phase diagrams.
Water is unique in that when it is in solid form, it has less pressure than when it is in liquid form. Meanwhile, most substances have MORE pressure when it is in solid form than in liquid form. Therefore, the line separating the liquid and solid states in substances other than H2O slants toward the right instead of the left.
